Introducing NEW! Tiny Hannah Doll!

I’ve been working on this top secret project for a while now as a way to let me be more involved with all my friends lives.

It’s really difficult to see my friends having weddings and babies and birthdays and not being able to be there for them… so I created a tiny felt version of myself to go in my stead.

Check out the introductory "advert" above! (With an excellent performance from mum.)

Tiny Hannah has teddy bear joints in her arms, bendable wired limbs and magnets in her hands and temples so she can hold and wear magnetic accessories. Basically I got really, really into this project. It took about five lots of magnets to find the right ones, and so many parcels from the Postman to get this done, but I’m super chuffed with how she turned out.

She’ll be available to visit people so let me know if you want her to wing her way to you. She has two weddings booked already, one in a couple of weeks, and one in October, so she’ll need to be around for that, but otherwise she’s got her tiny suitcases packed and is ready roll.

I will ask that if she does visit you that you take care of her. She’s only made of felt, so please don’t pull her around too much, or give her to children or pets. It took an awful long time (and a lot of spoons) for me to make her, and I want to send her all over the place (and ideally do a photo journal of her travels), so please keep her safe.

I’ll keep everyone updated as to Tiny Hannah’s adventures, and do a series of posts explaining how I made her, so you can make your own Tiny Person.
